Hey everybody,

I ran into an issue at $work where we keep passing the same $query_params 
hashref to a number of uri_for() calls successively, but if there are 
characters in the query params that need to be escaped they get escaped each 
time, leading to sequences like

?filter=Not%25252BRun 

after the same $query_params have been run through uri_for a few of times 
(because the '%' keeps getting escaped).  The query hash was originally { 
filter => 'Not Run' }.

So, we patched uri_for() here at work to create a copy of $params and work with 
that, and that fixes the issue.  However, it seems like such a simple fix that 
I feel like it must have been thought of and discussed and shot down in the 
past, but I didn't find anything in the list archives indicating that.  Is 
there some reason uri_for() does things that way?

If not I'll gladly supply patch + test.

Thanks,
Byron
